Each of the 230 base cards, the 90 Prospect and 20 World Baseball Classic inserts are available in the following parallels:

  • Blue (numbered to 500)
  • Orange (numbered to 250)
  • Red (one-of-one; Hobby Wax and Jumbos only)

Each packs will contains one Gold parallel. All base, Prospect, and WBC Prospect cards are included EXCEPT the ten autographed base cards (#221-#230).

Printing Plates

A set of four Printing Plates for each base card, Prospect, and WBC Prospect were randomly inserted into Jumbo packs.

Un-numbered Red

Later in 2009, a number of 2009 Bowman Red parallels WITHOUT the "1/1" stamping began to emerge. It appears that Topps may have distributed these cards as uncut sheets to distributors as a dealer incentive. Some collectors began cutting up the sheets into individual cards.

Collectors looking for genuine 2009 Bowman one-of-one Red parallels, should be advised of the existence of these un-numbered cards, and should look for any rough edges and strange looking foil-stamping.

Each of the 90 Prospect and 20 WBC inserts are available in the following Chrome parallels:

  • Chrome
  • Refractor (numbered to 599)
  • X-Fractor (numbered to 299)
  • Blue (numbered to 150)
  • Gold (numbered to 50)
  • Orange (numbered to 25)
  • Red (numbered to 5; Hobby Wax and Jumbo packs only)
  • SuperFractor (one-of-one; Hobby Wax and Jumbo packs only)
  • Printing Plates (four for each; Jumbo packs only)

NOTE: Each Bowman Chrome Prospect, and WBC card is numbered with a "BCP" or "BCW" prefix, respectively.

Autographs

Autographed Bowman Chrome Prospects

Exclusive to Hobby Wax and Jumbo packs; each Autographed Bowman Chrome Prospect is sequentially-numbered as an extension of the Bowman Chrome Prospects insert set. However, a corresponding non-Chrome (and un-autographed) version was not produced.

Each is available in the following Refractors:

  • Refractor (serial-numbered to 500)
  • X-Fractor (numbered to 250)
  • Blue Refractor (numbered to 150)
  • Gold Refractor (numbered to 50)
  • Orange Refractor (numbered to 25)
  • Red Refractor (numbered to 5)
  • SuperFractor (one-of-one)
  • Printing Plate (four for each)

NOTE: There are two different Autographed Bowman Chrome Prospects sequentially-numbered #BCP111-BCP114. On the provisional 2009 Bowman checklist issued by Topps, the 20 WBC Prospect cards were to have been sequentially-numbered as an extension of the Bowman Chrome Prospects set (e.g. #BCP91-BCP110); with the Autographed Bowman Chrome Prospects starting at #BCP111. For 2009 Bowman Chrome, Topps decided to begin the base set with the Autographed Prospects at #BCP91 and continuing to #BCP110. At the last minute, Topps decided to add an additional four Autographed Prospects and sequentially-numbered them as #BCP111-#BCP114, meaning that the combined Bowman Chrome Prospects set from cards inserted into packs of 2009 Bowman and 2009 Bowman Chrome has two cards sequentially-numbered #BCP111-BCP114.
